It makes sense that Samsung would try to beat the iPhone 5 intro as well as the proposed court injunction to ban Samsung phone sales in the US.
August could be a very good month for cell phones with the Bionic and the SII coming out.

it won't be LTE. it's too thin to house the 4g radio. and, it seems that Sammy is also making the Nexus Prime, which (according to AC) has been confirmed for release on VZW (supposedly in Oct) and will be LTE.

I wonder how badly motorola has shot itself in the foot? Now the GSII looks like it might be coming out before the db and if you throw in the new nexus phone and (yes I hate to say it) the iphone 5 they are going to lose hundreds of thousand of sales.

Apple have major brand recognition and that is hard to ignore. Plus they market their products effectively. I'm pretty sure a lot of regular folks out their would consider the next iphone as their next upgrade. But with the bionic and gs2 launching soon, apple is sleeping with one eye open.
I hope there will be a version of the bionic spec wise on the other carriers as well. And where is the htc and lg contender in this royal rumble? Sony xperia duo can't come soon enough.
